Cubs Tagged with 7-1 Loss
The Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago Cubs, 7-1, at Great American Ball Park. The win was due in part to left fielder Paul Epperly, who was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 runs. Cincinnati reliever Tim Snipes picked up the win, raising his record to 2-1. Aaron Morton was tagged with the loss. With the win, Cincinnati pushed its record to 45-25.

Cincinnati first baseman Jim Hall contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 43rd hit of the season and put the Reds ahead, 2-0.

Said Chicago manager Vin Calia: "We ran into a buzz saw."
